**According to the 41st law of threeness..."It never hurts to suck up to the boss." I find that threes are either smarmy or superficial or both. I like the superficial types, but can't stand the self-congratulatory ooze of the smarmy types. Quark
> > OK, 8's are doing what they have in mind, they don't care about this message business. 7's get bored quickly. 1's are afraid of being criticised. 4's prefer aesthetic things, so on. Whatever happened to 3's? Are we not supposed to put forth our nice images on this board and get appreciated? I thought we were to influence and convince people by saying a lot. Anyway, I am here to motivate you Let's have everything out. For example,I watch myself controlling other people. I like what I do. I sometimes thnk I am better than many people.. When my image is threatened I strike or I warn. This is enough for one go. Gigi
> *I'm not a three but a six. A three was just made supervisor at work. No-one wanted him there because he was sleazy and dishonest. But he worked long hours and KISSED the butts of his superiors
> doing unsolicited favors. So they made him a supervisor. I dno't like him because he has a closed mind. If someone presents him with something he doesnt
> know he ignores it and dwells on minutae. He has an opinion formed before you are finished talking. Usually a very simplistic one, but delivered with much animation. Not all threes are like this.
> I think the heart of the problem is this person is an ISTJ combined with low ave. threeness.
> At any rate what people find disturbing about unhealthy threes is they will do whatever it takes to make themselves exhaulted which forces the question wheather or not they even have souls.
